Stillness of the Early Morning

December 28, 2010

House is quiet except for the snoring of small boys and a big dog.

Outside everything is frozen. The wind picks up the snow and whips it around. It is the sort of cold that bites your cheeks as soon as you step into it.

Soon the boys will be awake. And loudly, because boys can never do anything not loudly, they will remove their gloves and hats from the radiators, wrap themselves in layers, and eagerly go out and play.

For now I enjoy my coffee in the remaining moments of quiet.
